Romeo and Juliet the manga


I chose the tittle page of the Romeo and Juliet Manga.This image is full of horizontal line, meaning stability but the lines at the bottom of the page are slightly diagonal bringing tension to the piece. The background of this piece is light at the top sowing a flowing freedom well the bottom of the piece shows darkness, meaning a doom or evil looming. The foreground of the piece is very smooth and rounded. This shows a security and happiness. The characters located in the bottom half are showing their stability and groundedness. The characters are touching showing a relationship, in this case a good one. They are both happy confirming their good relationship. The image is set in downtown Tokyo, a bustling city with many different people in it.
The story behind this picture is not hard to guess, it's the story of anger, strife, and above all love.
